Abstract
Halogens are powerful tracers of subducted water. In order to investigate how far the influence of slab-derived fluids extends into the mantle, we studied halogens in mantle xenoliths. The halogens of the xenoliths from volcanic front were enriched in I and similar to those of sedimentary pore fluids. The similar signature was also found in some xenoliths from rear-arc region. The halogens of the xenolith from intraplate settings are explainable by a halogen fractionation from a MORB source-like composition.
